What Makes A Christian?

Just a simple short blog tonight: Have you ever thought about what it is that makes you a Christian? I read this quote today:

"Going to church does not make you a Christian any more than going to the garage makes you a car" (Laurence J Peter)

Many people believe that to be a Christian you need to go to church, and others may believe that simply going to church makes you a Christian. Going to church is not a bad thing, however, going to church does not make us Christian nor does it make us a better Christian. 

What is it then that makes you a Christian? It's the acceptance of Christ into your life. If you go to church but have not accepted Christ in you heart and live the rest the of week seperate from Him, then you are no different really from those who do not go to church. If you have accepted Christ and continually live side by side with Him and walking by His ways, but don't go to church, you are neither a better or worse Christian than others. The truth is... Jesus is what makes us Christian. All we need to do is believe and confess!

Thankful for: Light

I walked down my pitch black hallway tonight, and had no idea where the door to my bedroom was and it make me realise how much I am thankful for light, and not only light but my sight. Light and sight allow me to know where I am going easily. Without both of these I would probably end up with a lot of injuries.
